 Here are the 3 signs that are indications that
you must consult an orthopaedic doctor at the
earliest  

1. Soft tissue injury It may be fine to give at
   least a day to see how a twisted knee, or busted
   wrist, sprained ankle behaves after performing
   the RICE (Rest, Ice, and Compression Elevation)
   to see if the swelling and pain subsides. If they
   do not subside and injury is throwing a spanner
   into your everyday activities then you need a
   check-up at the earliest given that your
   activities can further worsen the injury.
2. Numbness or weakness in hand (wrist)  Given the
   thousands of hours spent in typing and using
   forearm in not so ergonomically stable positions
   can irritate the median nerves that pass through
   the wrist causing pain and weakness in the
   wrist. Carpal tunnel syndrome as it is called,
   the condition can get worsen over time can be
   relieved with simple measures like wearing a
   splint or using certain hand positions and
   avoiding certain hand activities prescribed by
   an orthopaedic specialist.

• Difficulty in performing everyday routine In a
  few cases, a patient may suffer from difficulty
  in performing everyday activities without any
  reason what so ever. This can happen due to long
  weakness or conditions that were accumulating in
  muscles, tendons or joints since years which is
  common in elderly people. Whatever is the reason,
  if you are experiencing sudden and increases
  difficulty performing your everyday activity you
  must consult an orthopaedist at the earliest to
  solve your problem.
• 
  While patients consult orthopaedic specialist
  readily for any sort of major injury, the above
  three conditions are commonly ignored by the
  patients which could lead to serious problems in
  the near future, especially for older adults. So
  make a point that any muscular skeletal problem
  that is persisting for more than a day must be
  diagnosed and treated by an orthopaedic
  specialist at the earliest. If you are in Mumbai
